Dickens sent an e-mail to her assistant principal complaining about the quality of a black custodian's work.

The subject line "I HAVE HAD IT"

"I have had it with the n who is supposed to be cleaning my room! You know we are trying to get rid of mice. Well Miss Maid doesn't bother to even empty my trash cans which sometimes contain food," Dickens wrote.

She signed the e-mail: "Grumpily Yours, Jennifer."

The district disciplined Dickens but wouldn't give details -- only that she wasn't suspended or fired, reports the Pensacola News Journal.

Dickins wrote an email to the New-Journal and said she had apologized to co-workers.
